The International Astronomical Union (IAU) downgraded the status of Pluto to that of a dwarf planet because it did not meet the three criteria the IAU uses to define a full-sized planet. Essentially Pluto meets all the criteria except one—it “has not cleared its neighboring region of other objects.

Which change occurs when an atom undergoes alpha decay?
oee [108]
In an alpha decay, an atom emits an alpha particle. An alpha particle consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons: this means that during this kind of decay, the original atom loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons from its nucleus.

This also means that the atomic number Z of the element (the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus) decreases by 2 units in the process, while the mass number A (the mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons) decreases by 4 units.

A bullet leaves a gun with a horizontal velocity of 100 m/s. Calculate the distance it would travel in 1.3 seconds.
stiks02 [169]

Ignoring air resistance, the bullet's horizontal velocity is constant:

v_x=v_{0x}=100\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

In 1.3 seconds, we can expect it to travel

v_xt=\left(100\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(1.3\,\mathrm s)=130\,\mathrm m
